May 1990, the day Rene and I graduated from UT Austin. A new beginning in starting our futures together. We were off to San Antonio to start Dental School and plan a wedding. A happy day for the both of us and our families.

We had an early start to our Saturday today as we ventured off to The University of Arizona campus. Renie took his SAT exam today in preparations for the start of where he will decide to go to college. I got an odd feeling as he ventured off into the test center. I wanted to walk him to the door as if he was still my little 4 year old. As he opened the door to the car he said "Oh mom and dad, I love you, but I will be fine." We had fun on campus watching the students ride their bikes and jog. It was just a beautiful day here in Tucson and the campus is so nice. I got a kick out of the charming little Starbucks on campus. Today reminded me of my college days at the University of Texas in Austin. We had such a blast and I could remember just itching to get out of Benavides and start my journey towards independence. Dorm parties, all nighters, and great times. I so want both my kids to experience college life. It is the one place I hope they will feel a sense of belonging and stability, make friends for life, and know they will not have to pick up and move as soon as they get comfortable. We ended our afternoon eating some delicious red velvet cupcakes.
